HE SHOULD COME WEST.

The criticism is made that President
CLEVELAND did not appoint Western
mana representative of the vast region
beyond the Mississippi-on the interstate
commerce commission because ne was really
ignorant of the enormous extent of the
West and knew little or nothing of its
wonderful resources and manifold inter-
eSts. In other appointments the president
has also given indication that his acquant-
ance with the West and its desires is sus-
ceptible of improvement. He himself has
admitted that his personal observation goes
no farther west than Buffalo. and it is hardly
conceivable that a man who has led the
busy life that has fallen to the lot of Mr..
CLEVELAND has had very much time to
inform himself by reading. Occupying
the position he does, with fair prospect
of retaining it for four additional years,
She conseryator of the whole countrys in
Ierests, it is imperative that the
president should inform himself we'll as to
every sections needs and interests in order
that, through inadvertance, he may not do
injustice to one region by unduly favoring
another. The only way, too, in which he
can surely acquire the desired information
is by personal observation. 1t is regarding
the West that the president is chiefly at
fault, and to the West he should come for
the knowledge in which he is lacking
Congress is no longer in session, there is no
vital necessity for his staying in Washing
ton, and the West is quite prepared to re-
ceive him. 1t will teach him a good many
things he never knew before. and he will
return with his ideas regarding the country
good deal expanded and his capabilities
as a judicious executive a good deal in
creased. The trip would do the president
good and it would do the West good. The
latter is more than in favor of it; cannot
the former be induced to give it his favor
able consideration?

STRAY SuNREAMS

Rev. DR.. ]. L. NJ. CURRY, the American
minister TO Spain, is a Baptist preacher. The
wisdom of appointing Protestant clergyman
as minister to Catholic court was doubted at
first, and the president was severely criticized
for making this appointment. 1t turns out,
however, that it is the most popular of all the
foreign diplomatic appointments.
~.r
Advices from Madrid state that DR.. CURRY
is the best liked man In Madrid and is the
most popular American representative at
court since the days when CALEB CUSHING
filled that post. His official relations with the
Spanish government are most cordial and his
social position the pleasantestsof all the di-
plomatists in Madrid. He is special favor
lite with Senior MovET, the chief of the
foreign Office.
One secret of DR.. CURRYs popularity is his
ability and disposition to entertain Hberally.
He is man of large wealth and both he and
his wife display the rarest of all social vir-
tues, tact, combined with taste and amiabil-
ity, thereby securing admiration for them
selves and their country. They entertain
with genuine hospitality and the noble and
erudite Of Madrid deem 1t an honor to be in
vited to their table.

Now that it is definitely settled that the
French salon is to be opened next year, there
is great rush among the Paris artists to get
their pictures on exhibition. ST. Paul is going
to be represented there with picture painted

PATHS Pittsburg critic, it is daisy,too.

People who were diScontented with the
prices of the PATTI concert in this city will
be better reconciled after reading the sched-

NO REASON TO LET UP.

A correspondent writing to the New
York Sun, asks it, more forcibly than ele-
gantly, to please ''let up" on its continuous
gossip and praise concerning Mrs. CLEyE-
LAND. Our luminous contemporary, in
printing the letter, announces that it can
not let up-it must print the news. And
is quite right, too. There is more reason
than the natural gallantry which the chival-
rous Editor DANA feels towards pretty
women in general, and the presidents wife
in particular, for the constant recurrence of
Mrs. CLEvELAND's name in the columns
OF Americas brightest newspaper. The
public is interested in the lady; it reads
with avidity anything it can find in print re-
garding her. and Editor DANA simply recog-
nizes the popular demand. The demand, too,
perfectly natural one. Mrs. CLEVELAND
is an excellent and striking type of the
American girl, and every other American
girl. who confidently expects that she may
some day be the wife of the president, lust
as every American boy expects that he NAV
some day be president, is properly inter-
ested in the charming woman who governs
the country's governor. And being a repre-
sentative American girl, it follows, as
matter OF course. that nothing but matter
of the most faultless and admirable nature
could find its way into print regarding her.
Voicing. as he does. the sentiment of the
entire people. Editor DANA cannot be too
ardent in his commendatory mention of
Mrs. CLEVELAND. and there will be few
dissenting voices when the hope is ex-
pressed that the time may never come when
there will be occasion for him to ''let up."

This is great year for the emperors and
empresses. They are making hay while the
sun shines and are going to have good time
while they may. The days of European
royalty are nearly numbered. There will not
be many more successors to the various
thrones OF the old country.

The Emperor WILLIAM, whose Goth birth
day has been so immensely celebrated, has
not been famous man so very long. he
ascended the throne of Prussia only three
months before that famous date, the firing
upon Fort Sumter. Before that he had been
known as an army officer of no particular
merit He has had a successful reign from
the poiut of view Of the interests of the
throne and The royal family. But it has been
identified with the development of a military
machinery which has crushed his country
under the double burden of blood tax and
money tax.
Since the hotel fire in Buffalo a bill has
been introduced into the New York legisla-
ture to compel landlords to keep, as part of
the furniture of every room, a cuiled rope so
fastened to some fixed point as to bear the
weight OF man or woman. a rope Is not a
perfect ire escape, but it beats none at ALL
ana it is great improvement on iron stair
ways placed where nobody can get to them.

Rev. DR.. CHRISTIE: Yes, think the meth
DDS of the Salvation army are crude and in
some respects objectionable. Yet these peo-
pie are doing Il great deal of good. They
reach a class that cannot be reached by the
regular church organizations. They deserve
the sympathy of all true Christian people
even if VIC do not approve their methods.

Another thing they deserve is the pro-
lection of their private property. lot of
hoodums invaded the rooms of the Salvation
army the other night and broke up the
benches and furniture in the room. They
rent the room and pay for the furniture and
the police should protect them in the enjoy
ment of their own property.
